Thanks a million to HS for setting up this downloads section. Well, here is my map for everyone to download. This is the same map that is featured in Motorcyclist Magazine (May,07 pg 159).

This map should work perfectly on any 2002-2005 VFR with aftermarket slip on and o2 eliminators. It will work well on any vtec really, regardless of exhaust. If running stock exhaust you may want to go in and lean it up just a touch. Try it first though and see before tweaking. If anyone feels like they can make some improvements, go for it. Many minds are greater than one.

I believe Tinyminds has dyno'd this map and got around 101 hp or so.

This map wont work well on 2006-2007 models with the lower vtec engagement. You could probably take the map and modify it accordingly for the lower vtec range. If someone attempts this, please post it up for other newer vtec guys to use. I've had quite a few 06-07 owners ask for it. My thoughts are that you could copy mine below 6000, and above 8000. Then just mimick what I did with the fuel curve on the dynojet supplied version from 6000-8000. Just smooth out the fuel curve.

enough rambling.

One request however. If you use the map, and you really like it. Why not make a small donation to VFRD ? I would guess there are probably 150 people who have or are using this map (just going by the fact that I have had about 300 request for it). If all those people chipped in 5 bucks, it would be quite a bit of dough to go for our wonderful community. Just a thought. :thumbsup:

I've just newly bought a PCIII USB and have a stock bike with O2 eliminators. Would uploading this map to the PC do any harm?

no. uploading any of the maps cannot really 'hurt' the bike. it CAN make it run bad, depending on mods. however, based on your stock w/ 02, it will run just fine. the first time i ran coyze's map was basically the exact same (minus PAIR valve too) and it runs great so you should see similar results.

It won't harm your bike, but I feel that Cozye's map doesn't match my Europe spec VTEC. Throttle response becomes less crisp and it pops more on deceleration. VTEC transition is OK though.

The PC maps available for Europe VTEC in PC website work better on my bike.

Comparing the PC map for stock exhaust between US and Europe VTEC, it looks that the US map increase the fuel more than EUrope map.

I think Europe VTEC comes richer from factory than US VTEC. It could explain why Cozye's map doesn't perform well on my bike. It makes it too rich.

Grant, let us know how your bike respond.

That was one of the concerns I had... Cozye's map being designed for a USA bike and mine being a European bike.

But if it pops on deceleration... :thumbsup:

coyze developed his map by trial and error. perrhaps taking his and then tweaking will give you what you want.

My thoughts exactly. I downloaded the map and love it. I hadn't contributed to the forum, yet have gained so much from it, I felt compelled to contribute.

#8

I've got Power Commander Control Center 2.7.8.13

I've never used the software before as the bike came with the PC installed and programmed.

when i open the program and try to load the map, it doesn't recognize the file as a "Dynojet Map File"

If i view all file types and select cozye's map I get a "C++ error" and the program freezes up.

I stink at computers, what's going on here? <_<

EEEEKKKKK!!!! GET YOUR HANDS OFF THE KEYBOARD, AND SLLOOOWWWLLYYY BACK AWAY!! :pissed:

mine is 3.1.8 and it works fine. sounds like coyze's is a newer version and therefore, it doesn't recognize the format. you will probably have to update to newer version.

Are you using the pc3 usb, or pc3 serial?

If using the pc3 usb, go to dynojet's website and download a newer version.

good question, I think I am running the usb. anyway i will try to download the newest version. what version is everyone else on?

#12

I'm booked in for a custom map on Monday 30th July!

I'll let you know how it went by posting before and after power figures.

#13

I have used this map for many months and can say it's one of the best available. It pulls from any rpm without drama and smooths out the VTEC transition considerably. On steady cruising it sips fuel and throttle rolls are clean - no chugging or gasps.

I am now trying the Tinyminds map for catless headers (my latest mod.).

#14

One quick and probably ignorant question. Will this map work without the O2 sensor eliminators? I am being told by a retailer that I dont need them because I got my bike in PA but I thought all US VFRs came with these sensors installed. Who is correct?

Thanks

anytime you use the pciii, you need to remove the 02 sensors and replace with either an eliminator or a resistor. if you bought the eliminators already, no worries. if not, use a 330ohm resistor from radio shack instead. 99cents, buys 2 and you are done. oh, forgot...you are right

The resistors, also, seem to have much less a failure rate, than P.C.'s eliminators.

What year is your VFR??? No 02's on 99-down in the USA, everything 2000-up has them. :thumbsup:

#18

If I use this Map will I every have to check my Valves? :rolleyes:

#19

SO has anyone had luck modding this for an 06 yet??

#20

One member I had worked with a bit to mod it for the 06. I think he came away with some decent results but I don't know if he ever finished it or not. you might start a new topic that will grab his attention, I don't remember who it was .. smile.gif

KB, you still haven't checked those valves yet ? lol.

#21

Does anyone have a map for my setup? I just got my Two Bros, PCIII and Pipercross air filter. Now, I am ready to see what this baby can do. I want to get the map prior to having my mechanic install the mods. I was thinking about get a custom map...but I am out of cash. I spent alot on the mods. The last item to add is to polish the frame and stator cap. I was thinking about using Coyze's map, but I am worried that it would not work with gthe Pipercross.

The attached link is a photo of my bike prior to the pipes, pcciii, pipercross and windscreen....

coyze's map seems to work great with almost every setup on the 6th gen. unless you are going custom, put it in a ride! :thumbsup:

#23

It will work fine with the Pipercross.

Nice air filter choice BTW. I just started carrying pipercross and thought there was a lot of buzz about them. Not to many people hear catching on yet. Fantastic filters. It will only be a matter of time.

#24

Thanks for the confirmation. Prior to purchasing the Pipercross, I was stuck on K&N. I did a little research and it seems that the ranking of air filters are as follows:

1. Pipercross

2. BMC

3. K&N

Pipercross is also the most expensive. I picked mine up for about $76.00 fro Cal-Sportbike. I am taking my bike to mechanic this weekend. Maybe in about two weeks, I will have it Dynoed. I will post the results.

Thanks again

I have a stupid question that I can't seem to get a straight answer to. Maybe you or someone on the board can help:

1. What exactly does a O2 Sensor Eliminator do?

2. If I do not install one with my PCIII, will I have issues?

3 What kind of issues? (MPG decrease, increased fuel consumptions, smoke)

Thanks in advance.

the 02 eliminator simply replaces the 02 sensors in your exhaust. these sensors provide some type of resistance signal to your ecu that it makes fuel mixture decision with. the eliminator (or a 99 cent 330ohm resistor) simply fools the ecu. the PCIII also deals with the fuel mixture of course and if you dont put the 02 eliminators in, you will end up with the pciii map not being correct as the ecu tries to adjust things due to the 02 sensor signal. very laymen in description, but hope that helps.

you will have a much rougher running engine if you leave them in.

Thanks for a description that I can understand. I guess I will have to pony up $15.00 to get the sensor eliminator. Rather, I'll go to Radio Shack for a resistor, a much cheaper solution. I hope it is just as efficient. Thanks again.

i have the resistors from radio shack...work great, cost next to nothing, take no time to install...not worth the extra $29 to me for the 'official' ones. oh, by the way, rereading my explanation above, one might think i was 'simplifying' things....thats not what i meant, its just all i know about it :P

I contacted Cozye about his map for an '06, and tried to have a go myself, but to be honest I really didn't know what I was looking at after I loaded the map into the PCIII software. Maybe we should try to get all the 06/07 owners all this forum together and try to solve as a group. I am so jealous of all pre 2006 owners because of this map smile.gif

Have to hand it Cozye, his map sounds like one in a million.

It's posted, just waiting for the admins to approve it i believe. I hope it works as well for the 06-08's as coyze's map worked for the 02-05's. I guess we'll see, but the bike runs very smooth with that map. I never noticed the difference until the battery died and I had to upload a generic map from dynojet for a set of microns. The bike did not run as well at all. The guy who made the map spent some time on it. The biggest difference is that the bike picked up 11hp in the midrange where the VTEC transition happened. I only picked up 3hp up top, but I did pick up some torque. I would have to find my dyno run sheet to tell you how much.

sounds like a good map. I hope that finally the 06+ guys will have something. I can't tell you how many PM's of disappointment I've sent for guys wanting to use the 02-05 map.

can anyone tell me how to get the map out of a PC2, for a fiw 98 5th Gen. I have a custom map which I find pretty good.

Max Power-101.02hp

Max Torque-55.45ft-lbs

Then I can upload it or send it to anyone interested.

I just installed the PCIII with one O2 Sensor Eliminator (got it for free from a wrecked VFR), I had the PCIII installed, with the eliminator. It seems like the guy I had install it was not that experienced with the O2. The fuel injector light stays on. Is that supposed to happen? Does it need another O2? Can I install a couple of 330 ohm resistors with the O2? How can I remedy the situation?

The O2 Sensors SUCK! I went with the 99 cents resistors. No problems. The FI light went off. Thanks for all of the advice. Coyze your map is off da chain! I went for ride this afternoon, and the power is very immpressive. I can't beleive the difference. I did not know a VFR could roar like that. I will post my Dyno as soon as I get over to the Dyno Center.

Just wanted to give a big thanks to Coyze for making this fuel map freely available on VFRD. It actually *solved* my poor fuel mileage on my 03 VFR. After playing around with the throttle and VTEC I was amazed at how smooth everything was, no hiccup on VTEC at all anymore. I thought I couldn't have good performance AND fuel economy on a 6th gen. Hah, on a 300 mile ride today I net'd 43 mpg all around. 43 MPG!!!! That's simply badass, and saves me from having a local dynoshop try to make a fuel map that works.

I've officially fallen in love with my VFR again, the mileage got so bad that I was considering selling it and moving on to something else. Will gladly donate to VFRD for Coyze's work, thanks again!

Cool. It's been covered in past threads, (that I think are now deleted), but the PC elims seem to only last a few thousand miles before folks have problems. Some have been bad out of the box, others are problem less. For less than $1.00 the resistors are the way to go. (I know this because of the forum). :thumbsup:

It's surprising to me, all the 6th gen owners with PC's, that still have problems, and no not of Cozey's map. He got some props, recently, in a major cycle mag.,...and he has no VFR anymore. LOL. Hands down THE BEST DAMN MOD, ON MY BIKE. And this is coming from a self promoting fool. LOL.

#46

I just love reading this thread. Even though I dont have my VFR any longer it really does put a smile on my face to know that the map I posted is enjoyed by so many.

I'm really eyeing the Bazzaz performance stuff for my RR. These guys are going to put Dynojet in the poor house I think. I looked at the application list though, no VFR.. suck.

#47

Anyone else notice a funk between 3-5k rpms running this map?

I just put it in, running Staintunes, Dynojet O2 elims, and stock filter(probably dirty at 16k mi).

On startup, got some afterfire with no throttle application(popping right off the bat, little smoke), smoothed out after a couple small tugs on the grip. Noticed the extra noise too, seems a couple db louder??(not that there's anything wrong w/ that!) Out on the road (50 deg F), seems to pull better, pulls straight through VTEC @ 7k(never had a problem w/ it before, but I could feel the dip, seems to be gone now), HOWEVER - my bike was always real smooth at any rpm, roll the gas to any number, hold it, rpms stay put, no surging/on-off power feel. Now, I bring it to 3.5/4.5/5k(cruising rpm), and I have surging. Feels like sh-t. Almost feels like a really loose chain, but my chain is fine...

Maybe the map is tuned for this surging that I never had, and now I get the opposite effect??

I'll ride it to work tomorrow, then I'm going to try the baseline map off Dynojet's site and try that.

Just curious to know if someone else had that happen. I love the PC in my F4i, my favorite part is that the on/off feel from 0 throttle position is gone(map from their site for F4i/K&N/Hindle slip-on), and smooth, direct throttle response throughout the rpm range. That's all I was hoping for on the VFR, I don't mind the VTEC transition. Surging sucks!!

Out on the road (50 deg F), seems to pull better, pulls straight through VTEC @ 7k(never had a problem w/ it before, but I could feel the dip, seems to be gone now), HOWEVER - my bike was always real smooth at any rpm, roll the gas to any number, hold it, rpms stay put, no surging/on-off power feel. Now, I bring it to 3.5/4.5/5k(cruising rpm), and I have surging. Feels like sh-t. Almost feels like a really loose chain, but my chain is fine...

Maybe the map is tuned for this surging that I never had, and now I get the opposite effect??

I'll ride it to work tomorrow, then I'm going to try the baseline map off Dynojet's site and try that.

Just curious to know if someone else had that happen. I love the PC in my F4i, my favorite part is that the on/off feel from 0 throttle position is gone(map from their site for F4i/K&N/Hindle slip-on), and smooth, direct throttle response throughout the rpm range. That's all I was hoping for on the VFR, I don't mind the VTEC transition. Surging sucks!!

catless, 330ohm resistor, gutted stock pipes.....runs like a champ....no surging anywhere...i am going to try tinyminds one day, but besides the low gas mileage, i really can't complain about this map at all.

could it be your resistor going bad/is loose? i think that would cause surging...

I got a set of catless headers with PC3 and the Dynojet resistors. I put the resistors and the PC in today, the resistors have a factory-style plug, so yes, the fit is good. No idiot lights on the dash, so I assume they are working...? I hate working on elec"tricks", but I do own a voltmeter, if someone cares to explain a test to me. Won't get to it till tomorrow after work though.

I downloaded Cozye's map and I will have installed this weekend. From what I have read, this is the best map out there. I have the 2004 VFR, Laser Exhaust, BMC Air Filter, and going with the RadioShack resistors. Sebspeed I will post opinions after Saturday, but can anyone forsee a problem with my setup and Cozye's map.... ? just in case I missed something on a post somewhere.

Also... any idea why the stock VFR map from DynoJet only hits 6500 RPM? Cozye's covers 12500.

#51

not sure of a test. maybe just ohm out the eliminator to see if it has continuity on the pins. if all looks ok, why not try with 02 elim and w/o o2 elim to see if it acts different. this would tell you whether it was impacting things or not.

you are saying that this is all new and that it has never run any better, instead of it having worked at one time and now it is worse, right? if always this way, might try removing PAIR valve as this seemed to help with this issue too.

#52

Just put it on today, the parts are all used, not new. I hate buying used electrics but this seemed like to good of a deal. Seems like it's all working but needs some tweaking. Once the headers go on, I have a custom map from the PO to try, as well as Jason's. Not sure if Stephane ever posted his. Or maybe I'll have to get my own big $$ tuning done so that it's correct for my altitude, humidity, sock color, etc etc.

#53

I am having similar problems running black06vfr's map (for 2006 & up), except it surges and runs generally rough from idle all the way through to 4K and is lacking in over all power at the higher rpms. I reloaded the map and the bike still does not run right, so I loaded the Micron map from PC and it works great. I compared black06vfr's map he has in the down load section with the Mircron map from PC and I now know why it is so rough up to 4k, there is way too much fuel added in the lower rpms and way to much taken out at the higher rpms. I'm not sure if black06vfr's map was messed with before it was posted but it sure does not work for me.

This weekend I am going to try Cozye's map and for the first attempt I'm going to do what he suggested and use the map settings from the PC Micron map in the 6k-8k range and keep his settings everywhere else and see what happens. I may play with it a bit and see what I can do, but one really needs a dyno to see what the results are at each rpm and throttle position. I'll post once I know something. Oh, this is for a 2007, just thought you might be interested to know that another person's map does not work well on my bike either.

SEBSPEEDAnyone else notice a funk between 3-5k rpms running this map?

I just put it in, running Staintunes, Dynojet O2 elims, and stock filter(probably dirty at 16k mi).

I finally just installed the PCII and O2 eliminators tonight which I bought over a year ago. I'd been meaning to do this for awhile, but when the VTEC transition smoothed out at 10k mi and just kept getting better, I thought "Why not just sell the PCIII, etc? You don't really need it."

But instead I kept it and decided to install it during my next oil change since the left fairing would be off anyway. Last night was it. Most of you know I am not much of a mechanic, so this took me awhile, but I got it done.

Cozye emailed me the map last year. I held on to that email for a long time and finally downloaded the map last night in preparation for the PCIII install. Computer stuff was easy to do. Hardest part of the whole installation was getting the throttle body wiring harness and O2 sensor connectors apart. My fingers still hurt.

After I was done I took a quick ride for an initial test, both to make sure the oil change was 100% OK and to see what changes the PCIII made. After that short ride I have to say I'm really glad I kept the PCIII and am very grateful to Cozye for his map!!

My '04 never had a bad VTEC transition problem, and like I said above it got smoother with more miles. With the PCIII and Eric's map, however, it's even better! And I think I've also rid the bike of the surging at 5k-6k rpm in lower gears, which was an annoying but not unbearable problem.

I never really had any complaints before the PCIII, but with it and the great map I think the bike is really that much better. Thanks again, Eric! :rolleyes:

I have a 07' I'm pretty technically adept.

Bike is a Japan model Speced up.

I don't know the air filter, not or there are eliminators or whatever.

I'm going LV EVOII.

Wondering if a PCIII + Cozy's/Eric's map is worth it?

Anyone can spot out some good places to order up the PCIII at a decent price?

Thanks

My understanding is that Cozye's map only works with 2002 through 2005 models. The 2006 and newer VFR's have a different ECU so the map will not work the same.

Back a couple of years ago, it turned out that the PC I had(which had been custom mapped) malfunctioned. DJ replaced it under warranty :fing02:

Anyway, during this process Eric and I talked and exchanged maps. I uploaded his map and really didn't feel that it was much different from my VFR without a PC. He tried my custom map and flet that it was rich in some areas if I remember correctly, but he did use some of the settings from my map in certain areas that he felt were better. So I reinstalled my "custom" map with the new PC and all was good again. Big, noticeable difference from Eric's map in my bike.

The point I'm trying to get to is that there are factors which will affect how well a particular map will work in your particular bike. Probably the most important is where you live and ride, i.e. elevation etc.

For example, we all know that DJ has loads of maps to service their customers. When I was first exploring and trying to educate myself about the PC prior to purchase I noticed that the people that were happiest with their PC's were the one's that had custom maps made. The people that went with one of DJ's maps seemed to be only marginally happy in general.

I'm currently having a map done for my '07 600RR and got to sit in and watch some of it being done. The PC came loaded with DJ's map for my bike/pipe combo etc. and their map was much richer in areas than what was being done on my map at my sea level elevation. The reason for this was due to DJ being at approx 2500' in elevation and a couple of other minor details......hence the richer map being created in and for that particular environment.

So, it's something to consider when trying to find the best map for your bike and where you ride.

Cool, and can anyone drop a few places they’d recommend for picking up the PCIII for a Viffer 07’??

Thanks!

Watch our very own Classifieds! :warranty:

If/when some members sell their VFRs, sometimes they put it back to stock and sell the accessories seperately.

I got a brand new one in the box from a Member here! :fing02:

Hey all,

I just got my bike back from the shop for the wiring recall fix, and when I brought her home (no power commander) she felt like she was running the same as when I had it installed. I put her back together last night and checked everything over, installed the PC into the new harness, and then added the latest map from Cozye.

First off, dammit am I pissed! Seems my PC lost its map a while ago. All this time, and all that wasted gas! This map is a hell of a difference from running a zero map. Absolutely no VTEC transition at all, smooth all the way to redline. I actually had to look at the tach today, I knew that I should have felt a kick, and there was nothing, just more noise.

Gas mileage is better, and she has no hiccups, sputtering, NOTHING.

Thanks again Cozye!

#62

I have a power commander 3 but the non usb one. Is it possilbe to get the map on my unit?

#63

Ok. cool. I am copying the map. A bunch of searching gave me the answer. Does anyone have this map running on the non usb commander? How does it do?

#64

Sweet!! I got the map up and running. Runs awesome. vtech transition is perfect. The exhaust note changes of course but the shift into tech is very smooth. If anyone wants the map modified for the non usb power commander let me know. Maybe I will try and post it. Thanks! I'm sending $5 to this forum. Money well spent.

#65

I've just returned from riding a new bike. Not many things live up to the hipe in my view but the PC3 and Cozye's map have transformed my bike. The on off throttle control is now linear instead of the two postion switch that it was. My bike came with gutted cans and used to pop a lot on deceleration....now gone. This bike is soooo smooth now. If you are sitting on the fence, get off.

I will be making another donation for this effort. Thanks to all of you who make this site what it is.

Hey Cozeye,

It seems it lives in Europe, too. I Loaded it on my 2003 European Vtec yesterday with a pc3 usb, slip on alu Leo Vinces, KN and O2 elims and it t-r-a-n-s-f-o-r-m-e-d the bike. WELL DONE & THANKS !!!

PS How come it works so well? I thought the VFRs in the states run much leaner than the ones we have in Europe.

Thanks again mate (its definitely worth a donation !)

Best,

George (Athens, Greece) :fing02:

Did anyone got any luck with this man and EU vfr? My new PC3 on the way so I am looking for a map now any suggestions?

#71

I have #59 from the 2007 abs production run. my add on's are K & N filter with air valve mod. O2 sensor bypasses. two brothers exhaust system. PCIII USB . as you all know the transition when the vtec stages( kicks in) you eather smack your windscreen or lift frt. end catch it and back down. the cops in california frown on wheeles when you leave the toll booth. :blush: after the third time my wife said I will have to get rid of my baby. I even went to chp office and had there mech look at bike and recomended Mammoth Motorsports in santa rosa. thay have the Dino needed to fix problem. ok

OK one saterday later we came out with a dinoed map that makes the transition point go away so smooth like a shot of ozzo. this cost 400.00 for a day on the dyno. I will more tham happy to share this. just email me bangbang1@pacbell.net

#72

I have a US '04 with a K and N and Drilled Stock exhaust. Is this map a good fit? Thanks for the help.

can this map be used on a PC V? Has anyone made a conversion map that will?

Anyone got Cozye's Map for PC III None USB version?? Thanks.

#76

Modified Coyze's Orginal PCIII USB Map for PCIII Serial Version.Problem was that on the PCIII USB Version Maps - (.djm) The Increments in RPM are every 250 where as (.map) for the PCIII Serial are every 500 RPM.

Excel fixed this issue.Many thanks to Coyze for this AWSM Map!

Thanks a million to HS for setting up this downloads section. Well, here is my map for everyone to download. This is the same map that is featured in Motorcyclist Magazine (May,07 pg 159).

This map should work perfectly on any 2002-2005 VFR with aftermarket slip on and o2 eliminators. It will work well on any vtec really, regardless of exhaust. If running stock exhaust you may want to go in and lean it up just a touch. Try it first though and see before tweaking. If anyone feels like they can make some improvements, go for it. Many minds are greater than one.

I believe Tinyminds has dyno'd this map and got around 101 hp or so.

This map wont work well on 2006-2007 models with the lower vtec engagement. You could probably take the map and modify it accordingly for the lower vtec range. If someone attempts this, please post it up for other newer vtec guys to use. I've had quite a few 06-07 owners ask for it. My thoughts are that you could copy mine below 6000, and above 8000. Then just mimick what I did with the fuel curve on the dynojet supplied version from 6000-8000. Just smooth out the fuel curve.

enough rambling.

One request however. If you use the map, and you really like it. Why not make a small donation to VFRD ? I would guess there are probably 150 people who have or are using this map (just going by the fact that I have had about 300 request for it). If all those people chipped in 5 bucks, it would be quite a bit of dough to go for our wonderful community. Just a thought. :thumbsup:

hey guys newbie to this site, anyways I loaded cozys map on my 01 5th gen vfr800 cause cozy said it'll work on pretty much any v-tech model, I have k&n air filter(not by choice), yoshimura rs-3 slpon and of course pc3usb, I didn't do the o2 eliminator cause a guy I talk to at dynojet said if the fi light isn't coming on then no need, but from reading this forum I wanna get the resistor from radio shack so can anyone let me know exactly what I need and how to install, and I was woundering does anyone know how to tweak the map that would make it more suitable for my 01 vfr800? I wanna do an air box mod but every forum I read there's 20 different opinions, so as far as that mod goes what's the best thing to do as far as performance? I'd really appreciate any advice, thanks guys
